The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 05, 2017

Call me “Rusty”.

Nobody wants him

He just stares at the world

Planning his vengeance

That he will soon unfold

Nothin a little re-bar couldn’t help.

He says; “Doc, a strong magnet prescription please, it has been going South when it should go North”.

no more ore-gasms

This might not work for everybody, but I’m going to prescribe an iron supplement.

Maybe he and partner should try starting with some WD 40.

@jk123: we have a winner

Poor guy is anemic

Wood he or won’t he?

and his sword though old and rusty

must be blunt but sharp enough

.

Procal Harum

@RadishHis face at first was rusty, turned a brighter shade of red….

Paraphrase Harum

Guess his name must be ED.

The Stark reality of getting old…

Equal parts of Geritol and WD-40 will result in the 1950s version of under-slung GM products.

I take it that his grease gun has stopped working.

Hah! Do they still even make Geritol?

He isn’t made of iron either. Titanium-beryllium probably.

“Metal bloke, Metal Bloke…. starts the day with a snort of coke….” Yes, I know that it’s the Spiderman tune.

Oh well, it happens to us all. I mean you all. Yeah, YOU all!
